There is a big difference between a sociopath and an egotist.

Having a big ego doesn't make one a sociopath, which is characterized by a persistent pattern of disregard for social norms, laws, and the rights of others. That doesn't describe MacArthur.

I go more for historical figures. Ahhnuld was a bit of a sociopath in his peak bodybuilding competition days.

I’ve watched pumping iron so many times, he was the best in the history of the sport, and his story is incredible what that man has accomplished, and he mind ****ed anyone who thought they could step in his way

We’re a democracy shouldn’t there be a vote on JDubs cobtent? ?

 

[JamesWsenior]

Think y'all should APOLOGIZE for going off topic. What was it again?

 

[Loyd Christmas]

Why would someone report that? SMH. If a woman in a bikini offends you. We don’t need to be friends!

Not being mutually exclusive does not imply that are the same thing; only that they can occur simultaneously. When that happens, you have the worst possible situation.

Check with your psychologist or psychiatrist.
Whichever you have the most faith in.

Sure they can but in the case of MacArthur, they didn't. He had an ego but wasn't a sociopath. Period. End of story.

What did you do to confirm your information?

Please don't tell me you did it all in your head, because that would most probably be a form of "confirmation bias.

Oh, the same thing you can. Read books about him. Form an opinion based on available information.

The late Col. David Lyon. Served on Gen. MacArthurs staff. Was a close friend of my family and was very complimentary of the General.

Is egotist a real word? Is it egoist? My ex called me an egoist, but she's a nazi sympathizer, as it turns out.

Certainly, a worthwhile attempt, but just as certainly not "serious" vetting.
